(Uhh, mention of suicide? Small warning?)

VOID didn't want to kill them just yet. What's the fun in that? Instead, he left them to feel hopeless and lost. They went back to the void, leaving the group in shambles. When he did this, Frisk was released from the "FIGHT".

"Guys, we cant lose hope!" Frisk exclaimed, seeing the group.
"what's the point?" Sans was the first to respond. "what's even left to live for?" Frisk had no idea how to respond to this
.
What happened. They thought. What happened to the pun loving skeleton I once knew? They wished for things to return to how they used to be. The first time they went into the underground and met wonderfull new friends.

"its ironic how you say that word." Sans continued. "hope, or rather HoPe." Being in a living world, and not reading a book, Frisk didn't really know the difference in what Sans said.
"Huh?" They responded. Sans took a dreep breath before talking.
"hp, too is an acronym. It stands for HOPE. a way of quantifying how much a person desires to live." Sans paused. He looked at Gaster Fraction and the taller skeleton continued.
"The more you desire to live, the more damage you can take. If you want to live, you would want to defend yourself in a fight  and try to stay strong. If you don't have a reason to live, you won't care if you die." Gaster Fraction looked at Frisk to see if they understood.

"Sans? What the hell! Are you suicidal?" Frisk exclaimed.
"honestly, with that whole no reset thing, my HoPe went up. but now, what's the point? he is dead. isnt this a bad thing to you?" He asked. His eyes were devoid of happiness. Only despair remained.

"I cant now. We've been through too much. We have to stay strong. Stay determined!" Frisk looked at him. Normally cheesy speeches, despite being short, make a difference. But  nothing changed.
"whatever." He said. He picked up the dusty scarf off the ground a teleported.

Only Undyne and Gaster Fraction were here. Maybe Frisk could boost their morale.

"Dont bother Frisk. I'm fine. I barely have a soul, so you cant really effect me." Gaster Fraction said sadly. He looked upset, but Frisk could tell he wasn't all that affected. "It might sound weird, but I   want to feel sad. But I just cant. " Frisk nodded understandably. It honestly sounded like Flowey.

"Undyne!" Frisk turned to the former royal guardsmen. She seemed to be in a whole other world of thought. She had a pained expression on her face and didn't really seem ok.
"Undyne?" Frisk seemed annoyed at her. Sure, they had been through a lot and had the right to be thoughtfull, but now she needed to pay attention.
"UNDYNE!" Frisk shouted.
"WHAT!" Undyne snapped out of her thoughts and shouted back.
"You alright?" Frisk asked. She already knew the answer, but asked anyway.
"Yeah, I'm fine!" Undyne answered happily, putting a happy grin on her face.
"Honestly, Mettaton could do with an actor like you." Frisk answered back, clearly not fooled. "But seriously, somethings not right."

Frisk didnt wait for an answer and initiated a battle. She CHECK'd Undyne and looked at the narration.

UNDYNE 1000 HP 50 ATK 20 DF

Yeah, that HP is lowered. Dont ask why I know this. Plot convenience Frisk.

_________________________________________

The battle was quickly over and Frisk was shocked. Undyne? The determined worrier? Losing HoPe? This made zero sense.
"Undyne, you arent acting like yourself. Please let us help!" Frisk exclaimed.
"IM FINE!" Undyne roared I'm complete anger. She quickly left in a rage, in the direction of her and Alphys shared house.

"Dont take HoPe too seriously Frisk." Gaster Fraction started. "After all, no matter your HP, you still die from a glock shot to the head." Gaster Fraction said, with a completely straight face.
"How reassuring, humanity rules, am I right?" Chara said, also with a straight face.
"I-ill take my leave." Gaster replied to the look of annoyance on Frisk face. He walked inside the skeleton house behind him.

What do I do now? Frisk thought. No one has any HoPe of continuing. What to do..
